Chapter 18: A Very Angry Old Man
Early the next morning, Luo Haijie was still guiding the disciples in the morning practice on the martial arts field, and he saw Qi Wanli wearing a mask and walking over in a hurry.
"Dean!" he saluted with all his disciples.
Qi Wanli waved his hand with a smile and said, "You go on, Brother Luo, come over for a while." ”
He took Luo Haijie to the side and whispered, "I had a fight with Gong Changfeng last night. ”
"What!" Luo Haijie was shocked.
"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous. Qi Wanli pressed his shoulder, lowered his voice and said, "It's not a big deal, I'm just causing him some trouble, and I'm not really turning my face." ”
Hearing his own dean say this, Luo Haijie calmed down a little, he blinked his eyes, and asked, "Then dean, what do you need me to do?"
Qi Wanli smiled and said, "You call Tang Hao over in a while, and I want to talk to him privately." At the same time, you declare to the public that I have something important to do, and I will not see any guests, and whoever wants to see me today, you will touch it back with a soft nail. ”
"If someone says they want to wait for me to come out, you can find someone to wait, serve the best tea and the best snacks, and let him wait slowly. ”
"Whoever it is?" Luo Haijie wondered.
Qi Wanli nodded: "No matter who it is." However, when someone comes looking for me, you still send someone to report and let me know. ”
Luo Haijie took the order and left, and after a while, Tang Hao, who was sweating profusely and naked, walked over quickly.
"Lao Bai!" he shouted with a smile on his face.
Qi Wanli glanced at him with a smile and said, "Young man, don't think that you are very special, you are a disciple of the academy like everyone else, and I treat everyone equally in teaching." ”
Tang Hao's clever play in the title was seen through at a glance, and he was suddenly embarrassed and ashamed, and lowered his head.
"But it's nothing if you call me Lao Bai. Qi Wanli smiled, patted Tang Hao's shoulder and said, "Just don't feel that you are any different from others." ”
Tang Hao raised his head, smirked, nodded, and said, "Got it, Dean Bai." ”
"Dean Bai......" Qi Wanli shook his head helplessly, motioning for Tang Hao to follow him.
The morning in Yuhai is cooler, the sun has not yet climbed the pole, and the salty sea breeze blows through the city, bringing refreshment in the hot summer day.
Qi Wanli took Tang Hao all the way to his room, motioned for him to sit down, and closed the door.
"You close your eyes, relax your whole body, and I'll see how you're doing. ”
He sat behind Tang Hao and stretched out a hand against Tang Hao's back.
At present, among the disciples officially enrolled by Xiaoyao Academy, Tang Hao is the only one who has not even reached the third order. Although his divine power has filled the flesh and skin of his whole body and reached the state of the peak of the second order, in terms of strength, if he is now paired with Tian Yuanxing, who is also the peak of the second order in the White Bear Tribe, it is estimated that he will not be able to beat him in a single face.
Not to mention combat experience, in terms of the amount of muscle training alone, Tang Hao is 108,000 miles behind.
If we make up for the gap in this area, we can only start from the realm.
The war divine power in Qi Wanli's body, or internal force, wandered through Tang Hao's body, and Dark Yuan conducted a real-time analysis based on the information detected by the divine power, and quickly figured out his situation.
"The martial mystic method you have cultivated is too basic, with such a secret method, I am afraid that you will not have a chance to break through to the third order until you are forty years old. He said lightly.
Tang Hao opened his eyes and said with a wry smile: "I know, I am not a believer in the Martial God, and my cultivation talent is also very average, and it was only because I tested my qualifications when I was a child and said that I was more suitable for the path of a martial artist, so I cultivated this secret method, but unfortunately I have not been able to get a better martial secret method, so I was blocked out of the extraordinary door." ”
Qi Wanli nodded and said lightly: "It's not a problem. ”
Tang Hao was stunned for a moment, then became ecstatic and his heart beat wildly, but he still couldn't believe it, and his lips trembled and asked, "No, isn't it a problem?"
Qi Wanli smiled and said: "It's a little meaning, I'll teach you a set of exercise movements in a while, you go back and practice three times a day in the morning, noon and evening, twice each time, and come to me when you feel that your joints are slightly itchy and your muscles are swollen, and I will teach you how to break through the transcendent realm." ”
Tang Hao nodded, but somehow he couldn't speak for a while.
"Don't be busy moving, now that I'm your teacher, I charge you tuition to teach you skills, that's a matter of course. Qi Wanli smiled.
Tang Hao sniffed and said sullenly, "Thank you, Master Bai." ”
"Your name has changed. Come on, I have something to ask you now, you go boil water to make tea. Qi Wanli patted Tang Hao on the shoulder and commanded.
When Tang Hao set up the tea tray, boiled the water, and brewed the tea, Qi Wanli had already taken off the mask on his face and gently put it aside, Tang Hao glanced at the mask curiously, but he didn't ask anything.
"Tang Hao, I remember you said last time that half of the medical hall business in Yuhai City is your family's, and it is impossible to open a medical hall without dealing with the Temple of Life, your family has a good relationship with them?" Qi Wanli picked up the teacup and asked leisurely.
Tang Hao nodded and replied: "Our family has a good relationship with the bishop in private, and we have also had a lot of business contacts over the years, so it can be said that our Tang family has the best relationship between Yu Hai and the Temple of Life." ”
"Not bad. ”
Qi Wanli smiled slightly, and asked again: "I heard that your Tang family has recently participated in the bidding for the labor army project of the Xichuan Provincial Water Division?"
"Yes. Tang Hao took a sip of tea, smacked his lips, and said, "All Yu Hai knows about this." This time, the labor army project is actually not big, just a few thousand ingots of grain and grass, but this involves a problem, that is, the business of the Houshui Division in the future. ”
"Two months ago, the general commander of the Xichuan Provincial Water Division said that all the businesses that could participate in the labor army project this time could contract part of the business in the water division in the future. This is the first time that our imperial court has given such a big project to civilian merchants! If our family succeeds in bidding, then the Tang family can cover the military medicine and military medical training in the entire naval division, what a big business this is!"
Qi Wanli nodded and continued to ask, "Your biggest competitor in Yuhai is the Zhao family you mentioned earlier?"
"Yes. Tang Hao shook his head helplessly, and sighed: "Their family has a better relationship with the Martial God Temple, they are in the casting business, and their strength is only stronger than our Tang family. ”
Qi Wanli nodded again, he thought for a while, and said, "If I let the Martial God Temple also turn to support your Tang family, can you guarantee that your Tang family will win the bid?"
Tang Hao was stunned for a moment, blinked, and subconsciously said: "I don't dare to guarantee it, but eight or nine is not far from ten." ”
"Good. ”
Qi Wanli put down the teacup in his hand and said, "You find a time to invite the person who is in charge of your family, and I want to talk to your Tang family." ”
Tang Hao's thoughts flew and he realized something, and asked in surprise: "Old Master Bai, what do you want to talk to my mother? Can you tell me first? Do you want to support our Tang family to win this bid?"
"Just a thought. Qi Wanli smiled and said, "It also depends on whether your Tang family can get enough chips for me to help." ”
The reason why he came to Tang Hao today to say these things was mainly because he liked the relationship between the Tang family and the Temple of Life.
It can be said to be a coincidence that Bai Qiyu's demon clan cultivated life divine power to become demons before, but the fox Mo he met this time was also based on life divine power, which was a bit strange.
Combined with his own cultivation according to the "White Dragon Clan Cultivation Method" provided by Dark Yuan, he began to produce some demon characteristics, coupled with the ability to incarnate into plants and other skills in the middle and high levels of life dependents, so he faintly had an idea of grasping the reason why demons are demons.
For this reason, even if it is for Bai Qiyu, he must have a good relationship with the Temple of Life to see if he can inquire more about the inside story.
In addition, if Hu Mo wants to find the past of his beloved, he must also deal with the Temple of Life.
So, now that Tang Hao is already a disciple of Xiaoyao Academy, why not let him become a link? Helping him win an important bid is actually equivalent to sending some opportunities for in-depth cooperation with the army to the Temple of Life. This can be regarded as a meeting gift from him to the Temple of Life.
Of course, this cannot be done in vain, and the benefits must be maximized.
The master and apprentice sat opposite each other and drank tea, and after chatting for a while, there was a knock on the door, and Luo Haijie pushed the door open.
"Dean, someone is really here. With a wry smile on his face, he reported: "It's Qin Ji who kicked the hall last time, and he said that he wanted to invite the dean to drink tea." ”
"Send it away. Qi Wanli waved his hand and did not hesitate for a second.
Tang Hao blinked, his face full of doubts.
Qi Wanli's eyes rolled, and he suddenly thought of something, so he asked again: "By the way, are you kid afraid of being in the limelight?"
"Huh?" Tang Hao was stunned again.
Qi Wanli smiled, with a malicious expression on his face, and asked again: "I said, are you kid afraid of being in the limelight?"
Tang Hao spread his hands, and his face was taken for granted: "How can I be afraid of being in the limelight?" Young Master Tang, I have been the little overlord of Yuhai since I was ten years old, and the people in the city may not know what I look like, but everyone must have heard of me!"
"Good fellow, looks like I've found the right person. ”
Qi Wanli narrowed his eyes and said, "Then in a few days, the teacher needs you to make a big splash." ”
"Rest assured. Tang Hao narrowed his eyes and said with a dry smile: "I am very good at this kind of thing." ”
The master and apprentice laughed, and after a while, Luo Haijie pushed open the door again: "Dean, General Wu Kui is here." ”
"Tell him that I have something important to do, and I don't have time to ......" Qi Wanli took the melon seeds handed by Tang Hao, and said: "If he wants to wait, let him wait slowly, if he doesn't wait, then you send him away politely." ”
"Dean, it's not just General Wu. ”
Luo Haijie smiled bitterly: "I sent someone out to investigate, and I heard that Gong Changfeng was furious today, saying that you must personally set up a wine to ask for guilt and come to the door to invite him, otherwise he will swear to be inseparable from Xiaoyao Academy, and he will never give up until we get out of Yuhai." ”
"He has some status in Yuhai, and if he really wants to start a fire, many people will feel uncomfortable. Therefore, not only General Wu, but also the president of the Hanging Pavilion Chamber of Commerce and the master of the prefect here are all on the way over, and they are ......"
Luo Haijie glanced at Tang Hao and said, "Tang Hao's mother and head of the Tang family, Hai Ruwei, is worried that her son will be implicated, and it seems that she is also on her way. ”
"Hey. Qi Wanli shook his head and said with a smile: "This palace chief is very good at taking advantage of the situation." ”
